Panko Crusted Salmon
Panko Bread Crumbs adds the crispy topping which turns into a delicious mouthful bite with the flaky creamy salmon. Underneath the panko crust is a thin layer of Dijon mustard which creates a beautiful pungent taste. You can definitely use bread crumbs too, homemade or store bought. This is the Panko Crust brand we like
Most often I keep this dish simple, without any sauce. I add some lemon slices, some cherry tomatoes from the garden which softens down on baking. You can make a sauce on the side too, either a piccata sauce, white creamy sauce, something mild and tangy to cut down the richness of salmon. Yesterday, I wanted to keep it without any sauce at all. The garlic bread with the panko crusted salmon was a good light balanced meal.
Can you make Panko Crusted Salmon in stove top?
YES! If you have to make in stove top, I would suggest slicing a big fillet of salmon into mini individual portion fillets. This way you will have more control over the cooking time making sure the fillet doesn’t get overcooked.
Will Breadcrumbs work?
Yes, you can use either store bought or homemade bread crumbs.
Flavoring the panko crust/bread crumbs
I like to add some herbs and dry garlic powder to the panko crust, but you can even keep it plain or add other spices as per your liking. It works as a lovely blank canvas to play with your taste buds.
How to reuse the leftover baked salmon ?
The panko crust salmon is so tasty that chances are you will not have any left over. But if you do, then you can use it next day in fried rice, pasta, make salmon cake or add in cold salad. Here are more salmon dishes to try from here
This is a great meal for family gatherings too. You need any advance prepping and because it’s effortless you can prepare it just before serving. It comes out of the oven looking gorgeous, smelling amazing and will pull everyone to the dinning table.
